  1. "Why is Hoyt Corkins such a flaming bag of douce? Honestly, when was the last time he wasn't the luckiest SOB on the planet. When was the last time he made a final table and didn't try and donk off all his chips, only to get lucky and go on and win?"
  2. I knew exactly what this post was going to say when I opened it up, yet I opened it up anyway. I sit here and ponder why I would do such a retarded thing. Why in God's name would I open up a thread that I know is completely useless? Then it occurred to me. I came here to simply say this.....You sir, are a dumbass. That is all.Alpha
  3. With a big stack, I don't really look to push in against small stacks unless I have a monster. A short stack is going to be willing to play a lot of hands because they know they have to chip up to have a chance. I always like to push medium sized stacks. You have a distinct advantage against them because they have enough chips to still play a little poker. This gives you ample opportunities to run bluffs and chip up. These stacks know they have enough chips to move on, so they tend to be a little more cautious because all their chips are incredibly more valuable to them than a short stack

  8. I've folded KK preflop 3 times in my lifetime and have been fortunate enough to have been right all 3 times. But this hand is just so astronomically difficult to get away from. Early on in tourney's when your M is huge and there is so much room for play, it is significantly easier to get rid of this hand. Later on in a tourney when the blinds go up, it is near impossible to get rid of this hand preflop. When I get to this stage, I often time mix up my play and often smooth call raises especially if the orginal raiser also has a large stack (if I'm first in I will always raise with this han

  10. When playing small stakes limit holdem, the key is to be able to throw away a big hand when the draw comes through. Just because its limit does not make it okay to call the turn and river bets because it is so small compared to the size of the pot. Don't play donkey hands. Play tight solid. If a draw comes through, you have to be able to spot it and throw away a big hand. Save those big bets when you can. You never know when they'll come in handy.Alpha
  11. I'm going to try and give my advice here and see how most people accept it. I'm not big into playing BIG POTS against weaker players. I like to make small value bets and control the size of the pot, especially when I play weak players. This tactic allows me to get away from hands when I get outdrawn, and to also lose less when I get outdrawn.Hand #1, I will check the flop. Bet half the pot on the turn, and when the 3rd diamond comes on the river, I have options. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a check call here. This way you have lost the minimum. Weak players probably won't fold
  12. I think this would be pretty sweet. I'd definately be interested. It would be a nice change than just dealing with the regular forum. A lot of times you just get too much response and opinion about certain questions (with a fair amount of flaming) to really get any good information or thought about an idea. I'd definately be down. PM me.Alpha
  13. The WSOP has only been late in the summer the past two years. Every other years has been in the May-June vicinity. And what colleges are going until mid june, that's just awful. I've not heard of one college that goes until mid june, so this shouldn't be a problem for "most" college kids. BBFIDTSAlpha
  14. I got second last Monday. One of my favorite tourneys offered. But I'm too busy studying for exams next week. Good luck.Alpha
  15. Quite frankly, you should just keep stealing while they're gone. If they never come back, and you win, that's great. Furthermore, if you win because they remain disconnected, they can possibly get their buy in refunded if that shows in their connection history (at least that's been my experience). So keep hammerin away.Alpha
  16. I'd like to follow up last night's second place with a repeat or better, but unfortunately I have a big day tomorrow and must get some much needed sleep tonite. GL tonite.Alpha
  17. Looking forward to this event tonite. It's too bad the On Game Networks Stud derivatives have horrible structures. But who cares? Its the Neg. Open Mixed League!!!!!! Unless something drastic happens I should be there. Later.Alpha
  18. Got heads up with a 2-1 chip lead, but alas it wasn't meant to be. Ran into a cold deck and never really recovered. But 1200 bucks wasn't bad. FCP is taking over Full Tilt.PERIODAlpha
